I have been lurking for some time.

That is until I saw this. While I have been seizure-free for more than
five years, I have chosen not to drive. Because there are too many
idiots on the road. I don't want to be the victim of a drunk driver.
At the same time, while I don't drive, I ride my racing bike. Every
time I am in traffic(that doesn't include the national highway system),
I 'take the lane'. While that may seem crazy, I don't ride ignorantly.

So please be aware of cyclists and don't pass them closely.
